A biodegradable and self-sterilizing bag for people of the
toilet-disenfranchised world (40% of humankind) to dispose of their
bodily waste and turn it into safe fertilizer has been created by a
Swedish inventor. It's a dead simple and brilliant solution to a
vexing problem. From the article: 'Once used, the bag can be knotted
and buried, and a layer of urea crystals breaks down the waste into
fertilizer, killing off disease-producing pathogens found in feces.
The bag, called the Peepoo, is the brainchild of Anders Wilhelmson, an
architect and professor in Stockholm. “Not only is it sanitary,” said
Mr. Wilhelmson, who has patented the bag, “they can reuse this to grow crops.”'"
